Good sounding soundboard audio sourced from a Nickelodeon television rebroadcast on July 2, 1983. This audio is quite hissy and the first 50 seconds of [[Photographic]] are significantly quieter than the rest of the audio for some reason, but this audio does not have the overpowering and distorted bass of the prior audio source. This concert was the last one with Vince Clarke.

[[New Life]] is missing about a minute and [[I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead]] is missing the middle instrumental bridge, but this seems to be how the songs were edited for broadcast.

The audio is quite hissy, and for some reason, the first 50 seconds of Photographic are significantly quieter than the rest of the audio. However, this audio lacks the overpowering and distorted bass present in the previous source.

New Life is missing approximately a minute, and I Sometimes Wish I Was Dead lacks the middle instrumental bridge. It seems that these omissions were removed from the broadcast and were not a result of the taper pausing.

You may find the video that this audio was extracted from at Source 2.
